    Steam cabbage for eight to 10 minutes; drain and set aside. Combine ground beef, onion, and green pepper in a skillet. Cook over medium heat until beef is browned and vegetables are tender, stirring to crumble meat. Drain well; add tomato paste and next five ingredients to beef mixture and stir well.
    Spoon half of cabbage in a lightly greased 9-x-13-x-2-inch baking dish. Layer with half of meat mixture. Repeat layers of cabbage and meat mixture.
